Not yet - But I'm on the list to get my HEDD upgraded to the same circuitry. Long story short - If Dave says it's better, I want it.

I haven't had any pass through either. Real bummer. I'd love to check out the Ibis.

I said this in another thread, though...I compared a Hilo to my current DA in the Dbox and while I found the Hilo tighter on the bottom and maaaaybe smoother on top, I didn't think it would change my mixing approach...so, maybe I should get off the badass DA thing...

No way. You should buy my latte. Not snake oil.

Trakker changed my life when I first got it 20 some odd years ago. The only piece of gear that I have not sold over the years besides my original Great River MP2. The Solaris looks yummy but definitely a luxury item for me....

How about the Burl DAC?

The B2 DAC is really great. But its not like the AD Bomber, although it shares amplifier circuits, just not the colorful transformer stage. So its more linear-reference. When compared with others, its Class A amplifier seems to extend the lower octave more. And it seems like no matter how hard you drive the output [not that I would] it stays totally linear. It reminds me of hearing back a 2-track deck that a master tech made cleaner sounding. Very big and pristine.

Hey John I know your thinking conversion but have you ever tried a 3 way like the ATC SCM25 ? I know the 20's didn't do it in your room and not sure if you would have room, but I think other than specific vibe boxes you are going to find Boxes that are different than the SAVRT box but not better!

Yeah, I've wondered whether money is better spent elsewhere.
